Pineda injury surprises Mariners GM
Seattle Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik says anyone that thinks the
Mariners knew that Michael Pineda was damaged goods before they made the
blockbuster offseason deal for top New York Yankees hitting prospect, Jesus
Montero, is wrong.
西雅圖水手隊GM Jack Zduriencik表示，那些認為水手把一個肩膀有炸彈的投手送到
洋基隊以換取潛力新秀Jesus Montero的人，邏輯根本狗屁不通。
"Absolutely not," Zduriencik told ESPNNewYork.com shortly after the Yankees
announced Pineda would miss a full year because of shoulder surgery. "None,
whatsoever. Before the trade, he was going to be our No. 2 starter."
「無稽之談，」Zduriencik在洋基隊宣佈Michael Pineda將接受肩膀手術而本季
報銷後向記者表示「根本沒這回事，交易前他還預訂擔任我們的2號先發呢！」
Yankees GM Brian Cashman also has taken Zduriencik off the hook by saying he
believes the Yankees received a healthy player. After being an All-Star in
the first half of last season, Pineda's velocity and success tailed off
toward the end of last year. Still, Cashman said there were no pre-trade
signs of injury.
而洋基隊GM Brian Cashman也替Zduriencik緩頰，相信Michael Pineda在交易前是個
健康的選手。雖然Pineda在去年上半季表現相當搶眼，然而下半季的成績卻有相當大的
落差，令人懷疑內情並不單純。但Cashman依舊表示在交易案成立前，並沒有任何跡象
顯示Pineda有受傷的情況。
Pineda was 8-6 with a 3.03 ERA at the All-Star break. In the second half, he
was 1-4 with a 5.12 ERA. In his final start of the season, he only threw 90
mph compared to 98 mph at his peak during the season.
在去年明星賽前，Pineda繳出了8勝6敗、防禦率3.03的成績。而在明星賽後，他只剩下
1勝4敗、防禦率5.02。在他最後一場先發，他最快球速只達到90英哩，相較於之前的最快
球速98英哩，落差相當地大。
Pineda reported to training camp about 20 pounds overweight this spring and
never could find his velocity in any of his starts. The Yankees eventually
put him on the disabled list. Zduriencik said Pineda will fight back.
在Pineda向春訓基地報到時，他胖了20磅。在開季後的先發出賽中，也完全找不回他以往
的球速，最終洋基隊只好把他放進傷兵名單。Zduriencik表示，Pineda將會重拾往日身手
。
"I feel bad," Zduriencik said. "We love Michael Pineda. He's a great kid.
This is very unfortunate. I hope it works out. I'm surprised."
「我感到很不好受，」Zduriencik說「我們都喜歡Pineda，他是個很棒的孩子。這是件
不幸的事，也希望能夠有個好的解決方案。我真的很震驚。」
Before the trade, the Yankees did a complete physical of Pineda before it was
finalized and they did not discover anything wrong with his shoulder.
在交易之前，洋基隊對Pineda做了詳細的體檢，並沒有在他的肩膀發現任何問題。
Pineda will undergo surgery on May 1.
Pineda將在5月1日進行手術。
Zduriencik：我好難過～
